Loucin Guitar Co./Garren Dakessian. I approached Serj Tankian eight months ago. I wanted to offer him a hand-crafted custom acoustic guitar. After a few emails conversations & sorting out of some details, I started designing & building. This was a true labour of love, as I had wanted to make him a guitar for the last 2 years. This short film documents the creation of Serj's guitar from start to finish. On May 24/10 I was invited to personally deliver the guitar to Serj in Los Angeles at Warner Bros. Records. He approached me with gratitude. We talked, we hung out, he played his new hand-crafted guitar & he appreciated that I included materials in the design that reflected elements important to him.....He fell in love with it. Serj Tankian was very gracious & generous.
Serj, Thanks for everything....Enjoy your hand-crafted guitar!
